Sharpen your senses as you "learn to see" using chiaroscuro - light and shadow. Set the stage and paint in oils to create a beautiful still life in the Old Masters style while focusing on the 10 attributes of sight: darkness, light, solidity, color, form, design, distance, nearness, motion, and rest. All levels welcome, but some experience with oil painting is helpful.

Because of registration costs and other services, including faculty contracts, material acquisitions
and housing arrangements, the Folk School is required to charge cancellation fees to students who
change their itineraries.

Once students are accepted into a class, our cancellation policies apply, regardless of the reason for canceling.

Cancellation of enrollment more than 30 days prior to the first day of class results in a cancellation fee of 50% of the deposit.

Cancellation of enrollment within 30 days of the first day of class results in a cancellation fee of 100% of the deposit.

No tuition, deposit, housing or meals refunds will be made after the start date of a class.

Registrations are not transferable.

Students who cancel their enrollment in a class to transfer to another class are charged the cancellation fee, plus the deposit for the class to which they wish to transfer.
